It is nice to hear such message :-)
If your extension can be turned off (by compile-time configuration options) completely I see no reason not to add it.
Yes, it can.
My personal opinion is that such features are more or less wasted effort, since the same result is usually easily available without this feature.
You are right, _usually_ you can live with additional partition for kernel, but there can be a situation when we need boot directly from some filesystem.
Give me some time and I'll port the reiserfs stuff to the latest U-Boot and send it to this list.
Best regards
